Is this true? Because he didn't deal with selling his paintings, that was his brother Theo's job (an art dealer). The arrangement they had was Theo would finance Vincents art life while Vincent would send him all his art. They were both very happy to do this arrangement and frequently wrote to eachother often. In fact the main reason van Gogh is so famous is because of all these letters which allowed us to learn about Vincents life and tragic end.
